Well, I, - for one - see the on-screen slap fight as just mere representation that crew is fighting, with the imagination taking rest of work, to "see" how it really looks (just like we imagine that our ship is actually flying, on screen it's stationary ;) ). I can imagine that doing the boarding scenes - even as they are - was pretty hard to do anyway, and I wouldn't, certainly, animate it better. Still, somehow, I think that it was more lacking in the "scenario" department, than actual realization.

I know almost nothing about Pokemon, and didn't know either thing was in any way related. That could only add to my enjoyment.

I just noticed that when the Kestrel goes through the debris field to grab some "Scrap!" *music* that it picks up a gear, a power converter and a rusty antenna. No cooler of snacks or a jar of Nutella though.

Coincidence that both the Scrap Rap and the boarding fight are hated? :lol:

Is it wrong to say that I'm one of the few that actually liked the boarding scene? It may not have been accurate to what the game does, and a bit hollywood style but it was cool looking. (Also engi death screams are amazing. Wish they were like this in-game.)

As for the scrap rap? In my opinion it could have been better, but still it was quite funny.

That description is a half-truth! They come into contact with a Crystal ship but that's about it. The RNG said they should suffer damage instead. :P

Also, noooo not the Defense Drone!

I like the scenes in asteroid belt. Cracked glass and severed pipe! It is only me, or someone is getting in mood for "The Martian"? ;)

KESTREL ADVENTURES EPISODE TWELVE!

"Is there a Mrs. Pavalo somewhere?"

Pavalo lectures the crew about the origins of the Rebellion, and a desperate stranger teleports onto the Kestrel.

Yay! Another episode. And they didn't use missiles this time! Did the Kestrel run out?

I can't remember which sector they're in because the enemy ships still seem to be armed with single shot guns and single shield layers and yet the kestrel has 3 layers of shielding (judging by how it got hit by two guns and yet a bubble still appeared).
So I'm guessing it's Sector 3 but in that case, when are the better armed ships and 2-shield layer vessels showing up?

Oh and that Rebel backstory. Pretty cool. I like it :)
